The Pink Holy Winter Wonderland of Hurricane MCMXXVII is a massive, cultured nation, ruled by Hurricane with an iron fist, and notable for its public floggings, parental licensing program, and complete absence of social welfare. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical population of 1.803 billion Hurricaneans are rabid consumers, partly through choice and partly because the government tells them to and dissenters tend to vanish from their homes at night.

The relatively small, corrupt, pro-business, well-organized government prioritizes Defense, although Administration and Industry are also considered important, while International Aid and Welfare are ignored. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Yggdrassil. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 13.5%.

The frighteningly efficient Hurricanean economy, worth 257 trillion gold bars a year, is broadly diversified and dominated by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Information Technology, Tourism, and Soda Sales. Black market activity is notable. Average income is an impressive 142,894 gold bars, but there is an enormous disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 858,910 per year while the poor average 10,734, a ratio of 80.0 to 1.

Glamping Hurricaneans won't sleep in a tent that doesn't include a Jacuzzi, paranoid museum guards keep a lookout for any animated displays attempting to escape the premises after dark, when shaking hands with foreign leaders Hurricane wears an armoured gauntlet, and all telephone traffic is monitored for 'national security reasons'. Crime, especially youth-related, is pervasive, with the police force struggling against a lack of funding and a high mortality rate. Hurricane MCMXXVII's national animal is the bat, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.

Hurricane MCMXXVII is ranked 6,486^th in the world and 6^th in Bozarkia for Fattest Citizens, with 22.27 Obesity Rate.
